The Washington Post's editorial board is urging Democrats on the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 rioting at the U.S. Capitol to subpoena former
President Trump's daughter, Ivanka, his former chief of staff,
Mark Meadows, and another top adviser.
"Top of the list is precisely what then-President Donald Trump did before, during and after the attack.
How did he prepare his speech preceding the insurrection, in which he told the crowd to fight?
What did he anticipate his audience’s reaction would be?
When did he know the pro-Trump mob was threatening the Capitol?
Why did he offer only mild statements long after the danger was clear?
Did Trump-affiliated rally organizers coordinate with extremist groups?" the Post wrote in an editorial published on Tuesday.
"Answering such questions calls for subpoenaing former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows; Mr. Trump’s daughter Ivanka and her husband, White House senior adviser
Jared Kushner; and other White House aides with useful information."
